We’ve all become movie producers these days, what with inexpensive video cameras and youtube with its easy to upload and multi-format video hosting. And judging by the huge number of amateur videos being uploaded daily to youtube, and other video sharing sites, it seems like everyone is having a go. If you plan on getting a video camera this christmas or you’ve already been shooting your first movie, what do you need to turn it into a blockbuster?
It doesn’t matter who you ask, almost every techie recommends SonyVegas Movie Studio to edit your video. It gets rave reviews everywhere. Movie studio 9 is now available on amazon and costs just $89. Not bad for software that can edit standard or high definition video, produce DVDs with custom menus and graphics, share movies on Blu-ray, disc, ipod or online, includes a custom soundtrack creator and an audio studio.
But there are alternatives. Camtasia Studio is best for screen recording and software of choice for teaching, tutorials and selling products online. It has a long list of clever features. I like smartfocus, which zooms in wherever the cursor is on the screen. However, it costs $300. A hefty price tag. AVS publish a video editor and convertor. You can try them out with free trials. If you want a free editor check out the top 5 free video editing programs.
The best video editors do not always contain the best video convertors. With so many different formats to contend with, a good convertor is a must. Total Video Convertor is highly recommended and costs from $40. In today’s video Mark Apsolon reviews Sony Vegas Studio 9. He used the pro version to produce the video and the quality is great!
When it comes to video editors, the choice is easy.
